Good to hear. If you start getting frustrated, it's always best to stop and take a break, even if it means for the rest of the day. Then hit it again and things usually go alot smoother.

i agree with taking a break and collecting ur thoughts and what not, but at the same time the job just takes that much longer.


but so i hooked boost controller up and wow i started off with 7psi- need more, 9psi- was like not bad, 10 psi - this was fun, 12psi was like this is great.

i was street tuning and my af averaged 11.5-11.8,

once vvl kicked on wow- i have it set to 4k. the best part is the gt28rs allows me to rev to 7500.
ohh the best part is that i melted my primary o2 connector.... lolol still works oi just had to move it but the car stunk like plastic.

when i get back from school i am upping the boost to 14-15 and hope my clutch holds up, and my fuel systsm.

cheers

then don't turn the boost up. 370cc max out at 250whp at 3bar and 290whp at 4 bar. I made 270whp at 10psi with that turbo on a de with s4 cams.
